The Barony of Aquaterra would like to welcome her neighbors
and friends to participate in All Champions on April 2-3,
2011.

This year we are having this annual competition for the
bragging rights to call yourself a Champion of Aquaterra at
the lovely and glorious Masonic Park in Granite Falls,
WA.

As April is still early for camping in An Tir, only the upper
reaches of the campground will be available for those more
hearty visitors that wish to put up tents. RVs will most
likely be in the parking lot around the Big Kitchen unless
otherwise designated by the Park upon arrival.

Two days full of head-to-head, finger-to-finger and
sharp-things-to-target competitions with a 50-seat feast
planned for the evening.

Per Their Excellencies, below is the current list of
competitors as of March 26th
